Hope everyone gets repaired. Sounds like some mean rocks!

This weekend is the 3rd round of FE Boat racing for the admirals. Can't wait to see everyone, hopefully the weather will be kind to us.

Today was a great day of racing action, the high winds made for challenging driving conditions, a lot of airborne boats today, the retrieval boat got a very good work out. Videos to follow.

Yes Dan we did have a fun day, lots of boats running - the wind was making driving tricky, it was gusty.

Open Class - Both of these speed monsters were in development, once dialed in, these are going to be a great (Yellow 6s, Green 4s) (6s max Limit)

Outboard Tunnels (P-Limited) - heat 2. The high wind conditions made these a handful

This weekend will be our next event - Hope to see everyone there. Don't forget we will be trying out Q-offshore (6s). Again the weather experts are calling for showers, so watch the forum, email and facebook in case the weather looks bad.

We faced some interesting challenges this weekend with the high water displacing the turn markers. Hopefully the markers can be re-located once the water levels return to normal (if it ever stops raining)...... Also I don't think we have had a race day where it’s been calm winds, hopefully as the summer takes hold we will get some weather conducive to some high speed quality racing action. It’s been a real challenge just to stay in the race never mind race for position.

As soon as I get the videos on line I'll post them up. Hopefully out of all the races I’ll at least have a few with some good footage.

Putting these great videos on our Facebook site now. www.facebook.com/indyadmirals

Sorry to miss the racing. We were going fast on the water where I was at my Dad's. Well, a pontoon boat pulling kids on Norris Lake in Tennessee, LOL.

I normally take some RC stuff, but the car was too full this time, so I didn't have any toys.
